Optical radiation safety and laser equipment

TC 76 Scope

TC 76

To prepare international standards for equipment (including systems) incorporating lasers (and light emitting diodes) or intended only for use with lasers, including those factors introduced by the use of lasers which are needed to characterize equipment and/or which are essential to safe use. The scope includes the preparation of standards applying limits as determined by organizations such as ICNIRP and CIE, to human exposure to optical radiation (100 nm to 1 mm) from artificial sources.
